The Member of Parliament for Damongo, Samuel Abu Jinapor has rejected claims of calling the Member of Parliament (MP) for Korle-Klottey constituency Zanetor Rawlings a “daughter of a murder”.
According to Samuel Abu Jinapor, he does not speak in that manner.
The member of parliament further added that the words attributed to him are not his.
The Minority Leader, Alexander Afenyo Markin was on the floor addressing Parliament at the time when a loud voice from the back bench from the Minority in Parliament called a Majority MP a “Daughter of a Murderer.”
The minority leader was later seen calming his members and making gestures pointing to the fact that it was needless and shouldn’t have come out.
Although the identity behind the loud is yet to be identified the netizen has claimed it is the voice of Abu Jinapor.
Speaking to the media, Samuel Abu Jinapor stated, “I do not speak in that manner; the words attributed to me are not mine, The words being falsely attributed to me are not words I will ever use”.
“I didn’t even know such words had been uttered. When the video was brought to my attention, I found it totally false. It cannot be correct”, he added.
Abu Jinapor further expressed his deep respect for the late former President Jerry John Rawlings.
“When his children established a foundation for tree planting, I was the guest of honour. It is on record what I said about him”, he added.
